Data miners have discovered that Deathstroke will be the next DC Comics character that Epic Games will add to Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6 in the upcoming Batman crossover.

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 5 introduced some major crossovers to the battle royale, including franchises like Predator, and The Walking Dead. Now, Season 6 has already brought Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft and Rebirth Raven in the Battle Pass.

Epic Games are set on bringing another major DC Comics character to The Island, in the form of the supervillain Deathstroke. He will be part of the highly-anticipated Batman crossover, and here’s what we know so far.

Deathstroke skin confirmed for Fortnite Season 6

This information came from notable Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR. Epic Games confirmed that we’d be getting a brand new crossover in the form of a series of six comic books titled Batman x Fortnite: Zero Point.

Each of these issues will come with a redeemable code that grants you access to an exclusive DC-themed skin or cosmetic, and the data miner shared the cover of the fourth issue. It features the villain alongside Catwoman and Batman.

ShiinaBR then wrote that Deathstroke is “100% becoming a skin in Season 6,” so we can expect to see him arrive soon.

The data miner also previously leaked a new Rebirth Harley Quinn skin variant for the game, along with a Batman Point Armored skin which is reportedly set to ship in April.

Deathstroke Glider coming soon

On April 16, 2021, some new leaks emerged which confirmed Deathstroke will also be getting a glider in the game. These came from Fortnite data miners iFireMonkey and FNAssist, who stated that the glider will be a reward for purchasing Issue #4 of the crossover comic.

At the time of writing, it’s not clear how the skin be given to players. It might be a reward for buying issue, as with the Harley Quinn skin. However, at this point it’s just pure speculation, and Deathstroke might become available through other means.

That’s not all, as Epic Games will also be bringing some additional DC content aside from the new skins. There is mass speculation that the Batcave will be added to the Fortnite Season 6 map as a brand-new POI.

We’ll keep checking for any more announcements and updates regarding the Batman crossover in Fortnite Season 6. Once we hear something noteworthy, we’ll be sure to let you know.
